Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!
Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!
This week @adafruit we’re spotlighting our TVA Time Baton prop from Loki. Prototyping a new project inspired by the Pumpkin Bombs from the Green Goblin and a skull necklace for Timelapse Tuesday, creepy!
Pi’s the Limit: Eben Upton on Raspberry Pi’s Most Exciting Year — And the New Pi Zero 2 W Make shared this video on Youtube!
In the cover story of Make: vol. 79, Raspberry Pi’s Eben Upton talks about their year full of surprises, from making a microcontroller to creating their own silicon chip. And he throws in a surprise announcement too. Here’s the full interview.
Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W is the latest product in Raspberry Pi’s most affordable range of single-board computers. The successor to the breakthrough Raspberry Pi Zero W, Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W is a form factor–compatible drop-in replacement for the original board.
The board incorporates a quad-core 64-bit Arm Cortex-A53 CPU, clocked at 1GHz. At its heart is a Raspberry Pi RP3A0 system-in-package (SiP), integrating a Broadcom BCM2710A1 die with 512MB of LPDDR2 SDRAM. The upgraded processor provides Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W with 40% more single-threaded performance, and five times more multi-threaded performance, than the original single-core Raspberry Pi Zero. Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W offers 2.4GHz 802.11 b/g/n wireless LAN and Bluetooth 4.2, along with support for Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), and modular compliance certification.
The board has a microSD card slot, a CSI-2 camera connector, a USB On-The-Go (OTG) port, and an unpopulated footprint for a HAT-compatible 40-pin GPIO header. It is powered via a micro USB socket. Video output is via a mini HDMI port; composite video output can easily be made available via test points, if needed. Sharing the same form factor as the original Raspberry Pi Zero, Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W fits inside most existing Raspberry Pi Zero cases.
Build a Time Baton inspired prop from the Disney+ series Loki. Use a Feather M4 and PropMaker FeatherWing with CircuitPython to make a motion activated prop with lights and sounds!
Different sounds are triggered depending on threshold and the LED changes brightness and color!
Hidden inside the handle are the electronics. The Feather and PropMaker are fitted in a holder that can easily pull out for easy USB access.
The diffuser is removable much like a lightbulb, you can unscrew it from the assembly.
Parts are designed for support-free 3D printing and fit on beds of most 3D printers!
Capable of altering the flow of time, this weapon is wielded by the Time Variance Authority. This SciFi inspired baton has the power to prune individuals by incapacitating variants. It features seven light tubes arranged in a circular group.
